Lee Radford (for whom I feel sorry) and Richard Horne have little excuse for not arranging 5 players, apart from those earning too much, to bolster us in our 5 weakest positions for the Newcastle game.
Time to step up and honour the arrangement.

Agreed. We need to get out of this division and we need a positive start on Saturday.

It should be noted that Hull don't have a game this weekend so the world, could be, our oyster

It depends on whether they have arranged a reserve fixture.if not i see no reason why Miloudi,Logan,And Ratu shouldnt be available as your full back centre and Wing and in the forwards Levy in the front row and Langtree in the second row.
Sanderson and Harris are both injured.

As this is likely to be one of our toughest fixtures of the season, it should be reasonable to expect that the players coming from Hull for the game will be at the 'top end' of the quality range. As Hull don't have a game, there is no 'conflict of interests' to consider either.

I think it's fair to say we will all be waiting with bated breath to see the squad list when it's announced.

Has Ratu been signed by you guys, if not could he be signed on say a 1 month trial contract by us.. we haven’t got a full back so hoping that could be Miloudi. We then need 3-4 forwards but that is dependent on everyone being fit.

Our squad is so imbalanced.. we have 20 players. 3 who are out injured long term.. we have 0 full back, 2 wingers, 2 half backs but 4 centres. The pre season has been a shambles, the team looks a mess. Let’s hope for a miracle Saturday. Love to be wrong but can’t see anything other than a heavy defeat.

Radford will be gone by April according to half the FC fans I work with.

Poor recruitment and the same old same old game plan every week.

Heaven help them if they lose Connor or Taylor to injury.

Scott Taylor has been hit with a 3 match ban notice.

Ratu wasn't originally dual registered, possibly as he was only on trial with FC. Considering that a number that were are currently reported as injured and one has signed elsewhere, it would make sense for him to be added assuming that the rules allow for that.

for me this will be the defining week as to will I or wont I be attending this season. As I see it weve got some good individuals signed on as our players (most would be welcome at any team in our league) but what we have,nt got is a team too many gaps in the squad,,ie no full back shortage of big players up front ect, If /when the squad is posted for Saturday we will see where we are and to what the quality of player from Hull we have playing for us. Then the result itself will either make or break me as an individual. All my thoughts and fears have been discussed on this forum so there is no more to add. In my opinion were not that well prepared for this season like everyone else I fear the worst.
